Explanation

In the movie Swordfish (2001), Stanley Jobson (Hugh Jackman) is forced by Gabriel Shear (John Travolta) to develop a hydra worm - a multi-headed hacking program to steal $9.5 billion from a DEA slush fund. 'Hydra' refers to the mythical creature that grows two heads when one is cut off, symbolizing the program's resilience. Carnivore was an actual FBI surveillance system but not the film's plot device.
